Design Educates Awards 2025

Design Educates Awards (DEAwards) recognise, showcase, and promote globally the best ideas and implementations of architecture and design. We bring together a community of creatives who emphasize the meaning of the true added value of their projects.

We are looking for creative, innovative projects (completed or concepts from the last 5 years) of any scale that, in addition to excellent aesthetics, incorporate added value —such as educational potential, storytelling elements, the stimulation of critical thinking, the ability to influence users’ emotions or behaviour, and an impact on perception or encompass other similar values.

Outstanding International Jury

Our esteemed jury consists of world-renowned architects, designers, innovators and educators who are successfully expanding the boundaries of what is possible in their fields. This year our Jury panel has been joined by Prof. Toyo Ito, Prof. Benedetta Tagliabue, Francine Houben, Doriana Mandrelli Fuksas, Prof. Barbara Holzer, Prof. Rainer Mahlamäki, David Basulto and more exceptional architects and designers.

Ceremony

The awards ceremony will take place during the Architecture in Foyer 2025 conference at the Solarlux Campus in Germany (Melle, Lower Saxony, Germany) in September 2025. The conference will be hosted by Solarlux GmbH, the strategic partner of the awards.
